Mastering the art of grilling a juicy and flavorful steak is a skill every grill owner should have. This guide will walk you through 5 key tips to achieve restaurant-quality results at home:
- Salt Early: Contrary to popular belief, salting your steak well in advance helps distribute the seasoning throughout the meat, not dry it out.
- Sear for Flavor: Searing the steak over high heat creates a delicious caramelized crust that locks in aromas and flavors.
- Thicker Cuts Need a Slide: For thicker cuts, use a two-zone heating approach. Sear the steak over high heat first, then move it to an area with indirect heat to finish cooking without burning the outside.
- Don’t Overcook: Steaks lose moisture quickly over high heat. It’s crucial to remove them from the grill before they become dry. Be attentive and take the steak off when it reaches your desired doneness.
- Let it Rest: After grilling, allow the steak to rest for a few minutes. This lets the juices redistribute throughout the meat, resulting in a more tender and flavorful bite.
